The company belonged to an Indian group but was managed independently. Due to extensive shareholder withdrawals and profit transfers, Dion Global Solutions GmbH filed for insolvency under self-administration. Due to the dependence of individual participants from the financial sector, the transaction process had to be carried out in a structured manner within a very short time. A delay would have led to a loss of customers and significantly reduced the value of the company.
